It is probably running lean. Hopefully you compensated for the cam with adequate fuel supply.

Are you certain you lined everything up right putting the cam in with relation to the crank and the distributor in relation to the cam? Sounds like you might be a tooth off, it's worth a check.

It probably just needs to relearn how to idle. I don't remember if there is an idle relearn mode in the functional tests, but driving it will allow it to relearn and adjust minimum airflow and IAC position.
